Interesting timing considering the recent AUA study that 55% of people treated with testosterone are done so inappropriately. https://www.endocrine.org/news-and-advocacy/news-room/2026/p...

Also will bring on a ton of sketchy testosterone supplements to "optimize" the troops.

Hegseth is obsessed with masculinity and not appearing beta yet he also hates beards! https://www.cbsnews.com/news/pentagon-grooming-standards-for...

This new testing requirement feels like a thinly veiled attempt to weed out trans people.

People tend to obsess over what they think they should have, but don't.

Where are you getting that from that article? As far as I can see it was that only 12% were appropriate.

(Honestly I’m a _little_ surprised it’s even that high; it’s very popular with internet quacks).

Typical behavior of a beta. Real men don’t care … while they are sipping their Appletini
